GEAHAM, N. C., March 20,1912.
Hazers Convicted of Manslaughter.
The trial of A. C. ftatch, Halph
W. Oldham, A. H. Styron and W.
L. Merrimon, the four University
students charged with the respon
sibility of the death of Isaac Wil
liam Rand at Chapel Hill on the
13th of September last, were put
| on trial for manslaughter at Hills
boro last Thursday. The trial was
concluded Saturday afternoon,
but before the case was given to
the' Jury the court instructed a
Iverdict of not guilty be returned
as to young Styron. After three
I hours of deliberation the Jury re
turned a verdict of guilty of
manslaughter. Judge Peebles sen
tenced each of them to four
months in Jail with leave to the
county commissioners to hire
them out and the defendants to
pay the costs. Each was hired to
his father.
The action of Judge Peebles in
giving them such short terms—
the minimum sentence—has been
severely criticised by some men
find some while oth
ers took a hu.nan view and con
cluded that Judge Peebles pur
sued about the proper course.
While hazing is a practice that
should be broken up, though it is
as old as the oldest institutions.
The victims often are subjected to
many indignities, but this case
lacked every element of malice
| and the court by the Judgment
showed clearly notwithstanding
the result, that it was not a ma
licious act on the part of the un
fortunate young men. The pun
ishment imposed by the court of
itself was light, but to the young
men the horror of their boyish
prank will ever be present nnd
I. ' their punishment will hang over
and about them for the remain
der of their lives.
|-; It is hoped the result will bp*
salutatory.

Mr. Taft's Last Day at the White
House-
Washington Dispatch.
President Taft's last day in the
White House was one of his busi
est. As a working day it did not
last more than ten hours but it,
was crowded with unusual events
full of incidents. The President
shook hands with several hundred
citizens and officials of the gov
ernment; received scores of tele
grams from friends all over the
world; signed Ma name to pile af
ter pile of pictures and letters and
held three receptions. He quitted
the chair he has occupied for four
years in the executive offices with
a smile and without a backward
glance. He met his old time
friends of the Washington diplo
matic corps and the Justices of
the Supreme Court in the White
House and last of all he gave the
first formal welcome in that man
sion to the President-elect and
Mr*. Wilson.
Monday night the' President and
Mrs. Taft were guests at a pri
vate dinner given by Miss Mabel
Boardman. Altogether, as Mrs.
Taft told visitors, it was one of
the happiest days of his life and
the regret he may have had over
things he was unable to accom
plish was more than offset by the
remembrance of the pleasant
paths he had traversed..

ID these days of star-shooting;
the days when all kinds of re

■he has. She most not only bear

It is the relation of a fact. Pneu

these times that all the diseases

To Hie Friends of the Old Confed
erate Soldiers!
The organization known as. The
Daughters of the Confederacy
Have been, for several -years, en
gaged in Alamance county in the
I patriotic labor of love of trying
trying to raiae enough money* to
erect a monument to the. memory
of the gallant boya of 1881-'BS,
who went to the war between the
States and laid down their lives
in that struggle for the
rights of the State.
| They have now in hand from
their work something over five
hundred dollars, and they made a
contract to have the monument
erected on the court hduse square
some time this year. They need
much more money, and it will re
quire about two thousand and two
hundred dollars to pay for the
monument. The Legislature Just
adjourned passed a bill author-;
izlng the County Commissioner*
of Alamance county to subscribe
as much as one thousand dollars
to help pay for the monument. A
petition is now being circulated in
the county asking the Commis
sioners to make'that appropria
tion. Every friend of the old sol
diers. whether that old soldier is
now living, or whether he died on
the field of battle, or in the hos
pital. or in a Northern prison, is
requested to sign that petition,
and you can do so by seeing Capt.
James A. Turrentine.
Wm. A. Hall, at J3urlington, or.Mr.
Albeit J. Thompson, at Graham.
The petition will be presented tp
the Board of Commissioners at
their regular meeting on the first
Monday in April next at three
o'clock p. m. by a committee of
The Daughters of the Confeder
ey Be sure to sign this petition,
and, if possible, be in Graham on
the first Monday in April next to
aid by your presence these ladies
in their labor of love to the mem
ory of the gallant sons of Ala
mance whq made the history of
Alamance glorious by their devo
tion to duty. No county in the
whole South did more than Ala
mance county did in that great
struggle. Her sons every
fight that took place in Virginia,
and in many of those that took
plane in the great western army.
This monument will be a perpet
ual reminder to all the ' present
generations and to all succeeding
generations, of the fact that pa-
triotism and love of country is a
virtue all ought to cherish, and
that duty well performed is a no
ble trait of character.

public buildings in the United

worst kept public buildings, in the

heap. Its closets and toilet rooms
are filthy and indecent. In one of
them a bucketfull of empty whis

of the corridors while the snow

The hooks are open at the Court House at Graham every day except

1 his is my final notice. All taxes that are now unpaid are long past
due and should be paid at once, Resides a number of special appoint
ments, I have made one more regular round than the Lay requires. The
Law provides April the first as the time for advertising all unpaid taxes.
Do not think because I may have indulged you in the past that I can al
>'btys continue to do so. This is not idle talk, the taxes must be collect
ed, and if you have not gotten your receipt by April the first you will
have only yourself to blame for being advertised and the costs to pay.
If you will not do your duty, then I must do mine.

chronic cough which had lasted two
)*rt, and the cough not only disap
peared, hat it built up my strength
as well."
The reason Vlnol Is so efficacious la

NOTICE! , ,
ROAD TAX FOH 1913, DtJE.
The special road poll tax for the
year 1913 is now due and payable
until the first day of April.
Under the old law theTieasurer
was paid a small commission for
collecting and handling this fund.
And heretofore I have given that
commission to those who looked
after it in the_different Townships.
But now under the Salary Ijiw
there is no provision inad# for
any one to be paid anything out of
this fund. Therefore, unleßN some
one will volunteer to collect with
out charge in the townships, I
cannot put the books out, as has
be«en my custom. According to
instruction from the County Com
missioners, the books will be-at
my office in the court house in
Graham, and all persons desiring
to pay will pay to me, unless they
find some one else with the books.
Respectfully,
ALBERT J. THOMPSON,
Treasurer Alamance County,

An Appeal.
The following letter, which ex
plains itself, has been sent out by
the central office of the North
Carolina Anti-Salooh League, The
Graham Ministeria 1 Association,
feeling that others than those who
have received the letter, might be
glad to respond to this worthy
cause, have requested that the let
ter be published in The Gleaner,
thus making the call more gener
al. Contributions may be given to
any of the ministers of Graham,
or to Mr. W. Ji. Green of Green &
McClure Furniture Co.
"The passage of the Webb bill
for our nation and of the Search
and Seizure Act for our State
•urely makes glad the heart of
every man and woman in North
Carolina who loves the cause of
temperance reform, and for these
we thank God and take new cour
age.
"These victories of the church
and moral forces would have been
impossible without the leadership
of the Anti-Saloon League and
ita employees, who were instant in
season and out of season, with
faith in the ultimate success of
of the passage of these measures.
"Now that the victories are won.
and we ait down to count the cost
we find that the indebtedness of
the North Carolina Anti-Saloon
League the first day of March, is
91,388.00. In order to wipe out
this deficit we earnestly request
you to send in your check for any
:>ucunt Iron-. f„uo to SIOO.OO the
I larger tfco bitter Of this $1,388
one half is due our worthy Super
intendent, who la bearing this fi
inancial burden without any com
plaint. It is not right that he
should do this, and we make this
, and we make this personal appeal
to you to send your check at once.
